You Met Your Match (Live At The Fox Theatre, Detroit, MI / 1968)

Lyrics

[Announcer] Ladies and gentlemen For once in my lifetime, there's someone to love me Would you welcome please, the exciting young man of song Mister Stevie Wonder (Cheers and applause) You, hey, you were good at playing the fox girl When I was good, you threw me a bone But I ain't playing hot for nobody Girl, just you wait 'til I get you home I'll show you the way to love somebody Like you've never ever ever been shown Because my love light's burning My whole life's yearning for you, woo You played around with Jimmy and Freddie You tried to make me look like a fool But I took care of Cindy and Susie Just to show you I can be twice as cool, baby If you want to learn how to love me I'll teach you in my own private school Because my love light's burning My whole life's yearning for you Let me hear you say it When you play with my affection, say it When you tried to make me walk the line When you decided you would hurt me Ah, when your grape feel from the vine Your mama told me that I better be mellow She said, "You're just a baby, maybe too green" I told her Jimmy, Freddie, Teddy and Victor They know better, mama shake off that dream Ooh, I told her that you really were cooking There was more love turning to steam 'Cause my love light's burning My whole life's yearning for you, woo, hey You met your match When you told me you loved me, say it When you said that you won't let go You met your match, you met your match You met your match, you met your match You met your match, baby, woo, get down You met your match, you met your match You met your match, you met your match You met your... You met your match, you met your match You met your match, you met your match You met your... You met your match, you met your match You met your match, you met your match You met your... You met your match, you met your match You met your match, you met your match You met your match, you met your match You met your match, you met your match You met your... You met your match, you met your match You met your match, you met your match You met your match, you met your match You met your match What I'm trying to say Is when you find that you're too good for anybody else You're just right for Stevie, mmm-hmm
